But isn't it how the fedora ds does the AD sync?. I mean can I
just write the script to connect to AD directly and do ldapsearch for updates?
Yes.
The thing is that Fedora DS will not automatically send changes to
a database. You'd have to write a plugin for that. It's much simpler
to just script it - most scripting languages have ODBC/SQL support as
well as LDAP support.
Alternatively can I do a script to search for the user against
his/her group from the updates obtained by Fedora-ds from AD?
I'm not sure what
you mean by "against his/her group".
IF so what are the docs and packages i should be looking at?
Thanks in advance
